Welcome to the Minnesota Technical Assistance Collaborative!
The Minnesota Technical Assistance Collaborative (MN TA Collab) is a statewide network of over 90 TA providers & organizations focused on helping Minnesota local governments, Tribes, and NGOs plan, fund, and implement climate and clean energy projects.
Powered by the Clean Energy Resource Teams (CERTs), we're an information hub and front door for both TA providers and communities to find each other, pool resources, coordinate efforts, and accelerate climate and clean energy goals together.
